"Loaded" incorporates a blend of musical styles, including Afrobeats, Fuji, and amapiano, combined with elements of choral vocals and melodramatic string arrangements. The production, handled by Magicsticks, emphasizes layered instrumentation with syncopated percussion and a textured soundscape. Asake's verses highlight themes of confidence and self-assurance, delivered with a distinctive flow that complements the intricate production. Tiwa Savage's contribution includes a bold acknowledgment of a leaked sex tape incident, addressing the matter directly with the line, "Who never fuck? Hands in the air," which interpolates Black Sherif's "Kwaku the Traveller." Her lyrics emphasize resilience and self-love, reinforcing the celebratory tone of the track.[1][3]
